What a good story. Thank you for sharing. Probably many of us share it also. Shopped with my dad for my 73 Ludwig Butcher Block set. Standard 22,12,13,16. Played in HS and traveled with concert band, etc. They went to college with me and still clean and playin them today
Sounds like the same story!
So great that so many of us can relate.
Thanks for checking it out.
